Pyongyang, June 30 (KCNA) -- The National Defence Commission (NDC) of
the DPRK sent the following special proposal to the south Korean
authorities on Monday:
The continued state of frozen north-south relations is making the
wounds of the territorial division ever deeper and the nation's
cherished desire for reunification has reached such a phase that can no
longer be overlooked.
The three principles of national reunification which the north and
the south agreed upon to adhere to before the nation and even the
ennobling spirit of By Our Nation Itself have been ruthlessly violated.
This is the present tragic reality.
True to the noble intention of the peerless patriot to set right
this painful situation, the DPRK side sent a crucial proposal and an
open letter to the south Korean authorities, political parties and
social organizations only to receive a cool response.
The valuable agreement reached at the north-south high-level
contact, which was arranged with much effort in February, is being
reduced to a dead document.
The blame for this rests with all members of the nation responsible
for setting right this painful reality as they are responsible for their
own destiny.
But greater responsibility rests with the south Korean authorities
who have mocked at the reunification issue by making far-fetched
assertions and making public sham declarations, keen on confrontation
only, in utter disregard of the north-south relations that have turned
more serious.
The people of different social standings are becoming more vocal
demanding the improvement of the north-south relations against this
backdrop and their desire to open up a fresh phase of reconciliation,
cooperation and peaceful reunification has become an irresistible trend
of the times.
This enthusiasm is growing stronger across the 3 000-ri land of
Korea with the approach of the 42nd anniversary of the July 4 joint
statement and July 7, the 20th anniversary of the event in which
President

Kim Il Sung, the
lodestar of the nation and the great political elder, signed a
historical document on the north-south summit in the last moments of his
great life.
This enthusiasm is becoming unquenchable as diverse political and
technical contacts on reconciliation and cooperation expected between
the north and the south from July, in particular, draw public attention.
The NDC of the DPRK makes the following special proposal to the
south Korean authorities, prompted by its firm resolution to bring about
a fresh phase in the improvement of the north-south relations on the
three principles of independence, peace and the great national unity and
in the spirit of By Our Nation Itself, in reflection of the desire of
the nation and the wishes of all Koreans:
Let us promise the nation once again to invariably adhere to the
principle of independence and solve all pending issues, big or small,
between the north and the south on the principle.
The principle of independence is one of the basic principles for
national reunification which was agreed upon before the nation in
reflection of the nation's desire and wish.
This principle calls for settling all issues, big or small, arising
in relations between the north and the south including the reunification
issue with their concerted efforts from the stand of attaching
importance to the nation and giving priority to it without relying on
foreign forces or allowing their interference.
We reached the agreement on north-south reconciliation, cooperation
and non-aggression and adopted the historic June 15 joint declaration
and the October 4 declaration on this principle.
Hence, we propose promising once again all fellow countrymen to
preserve and thoroughly implement all statements, declarations and
agreements concluded between the north and the south on the principle of
independence on the occasion of the 42nd anniversary of the July 4
joint statement.
At the same time, we urge the south Korean authorities to completely
withdraw all their far-fetched "assertions" and sham "declarations"
contrary to the principle of independence and totally abolish all
cooperation mechanisms violating the interests of the fellow countrymen.
We courteously advise them not to resort any longer to such harmful
acts as taking issue with the DPRK's nuclear deterrence, a valuable
common asset of the nation, and slandering its line of simultaneously
developing the two fronts by toeing outside forces' line.
For the present, we call on them to make a policy decision to
completely stop all sorts of mud-slinging at the other side and totally
cease all psychological and conspiratorial acts from 00:00 of July 4, as
was agreed upon between the north and the south at their high-level
contact in February from the stand of giving importance to the nation
and giving priority to it on the principle of independence.
We are ready to implement the February agreement at once as we have already clarified.
2. Let's show all Koreans and the world a resolute decision to
completely stop all military hostile acts of pushing the north-south
relations to the brink of a war and to create a peaceful atmosphere on
the principle of peaceful reunification.
The principle of peaceful reunification is the basic principle for
the country's reunification reflecting the desire of all peace-loving
Koreans opposed to a war.
It also fully reflects the patriotic spirit to protect the cradle of
the compatriots from a war disaster and ensure the prosperity common to
the nation.
On this principle, we have consistently maintained the stand to
settle all issues arising in the north-south relations in a peaceful
way, not by military hostile acts.
This is because all these matters are internal issues of the nation
under any circumstances however complicated they are. They should be,
therefore, settled by the Koreans themselves any time as they are to
live in harmony in a reunified land.
Availing of this opportunity, we once again propose the south Korean
authorities to clarify their true and candid stand to ensure the peace
of the country by totally stopping all ceaseless military hostile acts
in all areas along the line of confrontation including the hotspot
waters in the West Sea of Korea from 00:00 of July 4.
This proposal includes the issue of stopping the intrusions into
waters being escalated by south Korean navy warships recently and the
frequent firing of bullets and shells in the waters around the five
islands.
We, at the same time, demand an end to the acts of blackmailing and
threatening the fellow countrymen by introducing U.S. nuclear strike
means such as nuclear-capable strategic bombers and super-large
nuclear-powered carriers into south Korea and its vicinity and
immediately cancel its plan for the joint military exercise Ulji Freedom
Guardian to be staged with the U.S. in August this year so as to create
in advance the atmosphere of various exchanges and contacts to be brisk
between the north and the south including the Inchon Asian Games.
This is because the said joint military exercise pushes the
situation on the Korean peninsula to the brink of a war as it is a drill
for a war of aggression targeting the DPRK under the pretext of "annual
and defensive drill."
The war drills staged by the south Korean authorities together with
the U.S. are the most undisguised and wanton violation of the principle
of national reunification which calls for settling all the issues
arising between the north and the south in a peaceful way without
recourse to the use of force of arms.
If they consider the joint drills with the U.S. as indispensable,
they had better stage them in the area and waters beyond the territory
of the Korean peninsula as already clarified by the DPRK.
Many neighboring countries desire joint exercises with the Korean
People's Army recently, but it will never move with foreign armies in
the air, waters and land of the DPRK, complying with their requests.
3. Let's take practical steps for bringing about a new turning phase
of reconciliation, cooperation and national prosperity in the spirit of
By Our Nation Itself and on the principle of the great national unity.
Unity is the nation's mode of existence and an engine for improving the inter-Korean relations.
The nation should be placed above ideology, ism and social system.
When both sides pool efforts on the principle of the great national
unity in the above-said spirit irrespective of all differences, the
national reunification will come earlier than expected.
It is the destiny of the Korean nation that if it remains divided,
it is bound to go to ruin and if it becomes one, it will grow strong.
The DPRK proposes taking practical steps for bringing about a new
turning phase of reconciliation and cooperation on the occasion of the
20th anniversary of the signing of the historic document of the
north-south summit by President Kim Il Sung, the lodestar of the Korean nation, on July 7, 1994, the last period of his great life.
The south Korean authorities should declare¸ first of all, they will
not seek any sinister political aim in reconciliation and cooperation.
The reconciliation and cooperation between compatriots should be
guaranteed by the sincere practical actions for them from A to Z.
Nothing is a more foolish behavior than abusing reconciliation and
cooperation reflecting sincere compatriotism as fig-leaf for covering up
the attempt to bring down the other's social system and the scenario
for achieving "unification through absorption".
If the south Korean authorities refuse to accept the sincere offer
for reconciliation and cooperation or block the way of achieving them,
away from the compatriotic approach and stand based on the principle of
great national unity, this will amount to the most hideous treason.
One should not scheme to use the order of passage, customs clearance
and communication for sinister purpose in the Kaesong Industrial Zone,
too.
An epochal phase of improving the inter-Korean relations lies in
preserving the spirit of By Our Nation Itself and the principle of the
great national unity.
The south Korean authorities should come to their senses.
They should approach neither the fellow countrymen through tinted
glasses given by foreign forces nor the inter-Korean relations with
heads engrossed by sycophancy and submission.
They should bear in mind that if they give priority to the nation
before outsiders and attach importance to fellow countrymen before
international cooperation, they can pave a wide avenue for national
reunification, peace and prosperity.
It is our stand that all the Koreans in the north, the south and
abroad should give vent to their indignation and turn out with the will
not to make the nation's history of division of disgrace and tragedy
last any longer.
The rise and fall of the country and the life and death of the nation hinge on the will of the north and the south.
In response to our special proposal, the south Korean authorities
should make a bold policy decision and take a great stride towards new
future with the will to resolutely break with the inglorious past.
They should not forget that the crucial July is watching their movement. -0-

It is now confirmed that the DPRK has
conducted a strategic rocket test successfully. The DPRK have defied the
US imperialists and their marionettes the UN as well as the big power
chauvinists and traitors to socialism by carrying out this launch .
Victory to the DPRK victory to Songun !

Pyongyang, June 30 (KCNA) -- Supreme Commander of the Korean People's Army

Kim Jong Un,
first secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and first chairman of
the National Defence Commission of the DPRK, guided a tactical rocket
firing drill of the KPA Strategic Force.
He was greeted by Col. General of the Strategic Force Kim Rak Gyom,
commander of the KPA Strategic Force, and other commanding officers on
the spot.
He mounted an observation post and heard a report on the plan for the rocket firing drill.
The drill was staged by way of launching precision guided missiles
and firing of shells with dispersion effect for striking individual and
group targets of the enemy.
He gave an order for firing tactical rockets.
The moment ballistic rockets soared into the sky with thunderous roar.
The drill was smoothly conducted on the basis of a scientific
calculation of the whole course of the rocket firing and the scrupulous
security check and search for flight orbit and targeted waters. It had
no slight impact not only on the regional peace and security but on
international navigation order and ecological environment.
He expressed great satisfaction over the successful firing of
tactical rockets and had a photo taken with the service personnel of the
strategic force who participated in the drill.
He said that the peaceful environment dearest to the DPRK people can
neither be provided by someone nor can be bartered for anything, adding
that as durable peace can be protected only when one is so strong that
nobody dares provoke one and it can be guaranteed by one's own strength,
it is necessary to put the biggest spurs to bolstering up the
self-defensive deterrent of the KPA in every way to protect the security
and peace of the country and firmly defend the gains of the revolution.
He underscored the need to round off the combat readiness of the
strategic force so that no aggressors may recklessly dare threaten and
infringe upon the cause, sovereignty and vital rights of the DPRK and to
further develop and perfect Juche-oriented rocket science and
technology and firing methods.
He expressed great expectation and belief that the service personnel
of the strategic force would keep themselves fully ready to fire the
highly effective ballistic rockets any moment on high alert as required
by the prevailing situation and the developing revolution and thus foil
the reckless acts of the U.S. imperialists and their followers who are
steeped in evil repugnancy and pursue inveterate hostile policy toward
the DPRK and provide a firm guarantee for the building of a thriving
socialist nation.
He was accompanied by KPA Vice Marshal Hwang Pyong So, director of the General Political Bureau of the KPA. -0- (2014.06.30)

STATEMENT OF THE STAFFORDSHIRE BRANCH OF THE KOREAN
FRIENDSHIP ASSOCIATION ON THE 20TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE PASSING AWAY OF PRESIDENT KIM IL SUNG

On July 8th, 1994, President KIM IL SUNG of the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea passed away. KIM IL SUNG. had been at
the helm of the Korean Revolution since the 1920s to the 1990s. On the 20th anniversary of the demise of President KIM IL SUNG, the Staffordshire Branch of the Korean Friendship Association recollects with deep emotion and boundless pride, the
epic biography and achievements of the Respected and Beloved Leader President KIM IL SUNG.

The Great Leader Comrade KIM IL SUNG began his revolutionary activities, with the formation of The Down-With-Imperialism Union on October 17th, 1926. KIM IL SUNG
realised the truth that the Korean Revolution could only be victorious
on the basis of independence and creativity. At the Kauln Meeting, June
30th, 1930, KIM IL SUNG announced to the world, the creation of the Juche Idea. KIM IL SUNG held the principle that the Korean Revolution would
be triumphant by the force of arms. The Songun Revolutionary
Leadership of KIM IL SUNG was
made a reality with founding of the Korean Peoples Revolutionary Army on April 25th, 1932.

Korea's
liberation from Japanese Imperialist colonial rule was gained on August
15th, 1945 by the Revolutionary Armed Forces of the Korean People led
by the Great General KIM IL SUNG. With the iron willed command and original and creative strategy and tactics of Generalissimo KIM IL SUNG, US
imperialism and its allies were utterly defeated by the Korean Peoples
Army during the Fatherland Liberation War (the Korean War) 1950-53. KIM IL SUNG's army
building activities, ensured that Korea's Revolutionary Armed Forces
developed from having two pistols to possessing accurate
intercontinental missiles and nuclear weapons.

KIM IL SUNG established the Glorious Workers' Party of Korea on October 10th, 1945. KIM IL SUNG was
the WPK's founder and the Party's first General Secretary. The Workers'
Party of Korea had the monolithic ideological system of Juche prevail
throughout the Party. Under KIM IL SUNG's leadership, the
Workers' Party of Korea conducted a tireless campaign against modern
revisionism, flunkeyism and dogmatism. The Workers' Party of Korea is
rightfully regarded as being the mother party of the Korean People.

The Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea was founded by KIM IL SUNG on
September 9th, 1948. The DPRK
represented the centuries' long aspirations of the Korean People to
live as a sovereign and independent nation. Today, the
Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea is a state of the workers, peasants
and intellectuals, building the most advanced social system in history.
The existence of the DPRK is inconceivable apart from the name of the
Great Leader KIM IL SUNG, that is why KIM IL SUNG will be revered as the Eternal President of the Republic.

Reunification of Korea was the upmost priority for President KIM IL SUNG. KIM IL SUNG worked
for the peaceful and independent reunification of the Korean Peninsula
with such initiatives as the April 1948 north-south joint conference,
the proposal
for the Democratic Confederal Republic of Koryo in October 1980 and
the 1993 Ten Point Programme For Great National Unity. President KIM IL SUNG's last
deed was to sign documents on the prospects for Korean Reunification on
July 6th and July 7th, 1994. The efforts for the independent and
peaceful reunification of Korea, made by President KIM IL SUNG were realized in the epochal north-south agreements and summit meetings in June 2000 and October 2007.

President KIM IL SUNG will
be remembered in history, as the founder of the Juche Idea. The Juche
idea revolutionized philosophical understanding of the position of human
beings and exalted the dignity of humanity. For the first time,
humanity became full conscious of its role and
position in the world due to the Juche Philosophy. The Juche Idea
guarantees the independence, creativity and consciousness of the popular
masses, making the working people the masters of everything in society.
Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism is the socialist ideology, which is most
relevant to the challenges of the 21st century, the age of Chaujsong.

The most outstanding deed performed for the future of the Korean Revolution by KIM IL SUNG, was to appoint KIM JONG IL as the successor to the Mount Paektusan Revolutionary Cause. KIM JONG IL was absolutely loyal to the theory and practice of KIM IL SUNG throughout
his revolutionary activities. It is because the Korean Revolution had a
reliable successor, that socialism in the Democratic
Peoples Republic of Korea was consolidated. Today, Marshal KIM JONG UN is upholding the Juche-Songun Revolutionary legacy of President KIM IL SUNG and General Secretary KIM JONG IL, with total dedication.

We,
the Staffordshire Branch of the Korean Friendship Association ( UK)
call upon all Socialists, Trade Unionists, Anti-Imperialist Activists
and Peace Campaigners, to commemorate the life and work of President KIM IL SUNG, on July 8th, 2014. The Friends of Korea in Britain recall the time twenty years ago, when President KIM IL SUNG, passed away, with a river of tears. The Great Leader President KIM IL SUNG will always live on in the hearts and minds of the progressive people throughout the globe.

GLORY TO THE GREAT LEADER PRESIDENT KIM IL SUNG!

LONG LIVE COMRADE KIM IL SUNG, THE ETERNAL SUN OF WORLD REVOLUTION!

LONG LIVE THE GENERAL SECRETARY KIM JONG IL!

LONG LIVE THE RESPECTED MARSHAL KIM JONG
UN!

Pyongyang, June 27 (KCNA) -- The Secretariat of the Committee for the
Peaceful Reunification of Korea (CPRK) released information bulletin No.
1068 on Thursday exposing the crimes of Kim Ki Chun, presidential chief
of staff of Chongwadae in south Korea.
According to the information bulletin, Kim is the closest confidant
of the "yusin" dictator who directly participated in working out the
"yusin constitution" while acting as security prosecutor and
anti-communist investigation department director of the Central
Intelligence Agency during the Park Chung-Hee regime and a heinous
fascist who took the lead in brutally cracking down on the reunification
movement of people of all social standings in south Korea for
democratization against fascism by faking up all kinds of spying cases
including the spying case of Koreans in Japan.
After being appointed to the post of the presidential chief of staff
of Chongwadae in August last year by Park Geun Hye, Kim persisted in
the moves to revive the "yusin" dictatorship and escalate confrontation
with the fellow countrymen while styling himself a real king of
Chongwadae so much as to be called "vice-president" and "Regent
Taewongun Ki Chun". He held even the post of the chairman of the
personal affairs committee of Chongwadae and let those who curried favor
with him hold the important posts of Chongwadae and the Administration.
It is none other than Kim Ki Chun who made sure that Mun Chang Guk, a
heinous pro-Japanese traitor, was designated as puppet prime minister.
Kim engineered the operation for the nomination of Mun who worked as
director of the "Park Chung-Hee Memorial Foundation" when he was active
as its director general, and patronized Mun to the last despite public
opposition.
It is also none other than Kim who had his clans hold the posts of
the chief prosecutor and the director of the Board of Audit and
Inspection at the time of personnel changes last year, sparking a big
furor.
Kim is a heinous anti-reunification confrontation maniac who openly
called for "unification of social systems" while malignantly slandering
the June 15 joint declaration and the October 4 declaration and labeling
the north-south cooperation undertakings as "drain on resources"
The inter-Korean relations are being driven into a serious
catastrophe and the situation is being extremely aggravated because such
villains as Kim are commanding all the conspiratorial rackets of the
anti-reunification ultra-right conservative forces for escalating
confrontation with the DPRK while having the final say on "the policy
toward the north" at the important posts of Chongwadae.
If such a guy is allowed to stay in power, the south Korean people
can not avoid disaster and the inter-Korean relations will go bankrupt.
Opposition parties and people from all walks of life in south Korea
are strongly demanding the resignation of Kim, and media and experts on
the situation are warning that if Park Geun Hye continues to take him
under her wing, it will cause bigger misfortune.
Park should lend an ear to public mindset and voices and understand
that it is the way of tiding over the worst crisis, a way beneficial to
her.
If not, Chongwadae will face greater people's resentment and the most disgraceful ruin, the information bulletin warned. -0-

Pyongyang, June 26 (KCNA) -- The Command of the Southwestern Front of
the Korean People's Army (KPA) releases the following crucial report on
Thursday:
On Thursday the warmongers of the south Korean puppet military
committed such a grave military provocation as firing shells at the
waters of the DPRK side from the waters around Yonphyong Island without
any prior notice.
This reckless military provocation is an undisguised revelation of
their sinister design to ignite a war against the DPRK by deliberately
making a clumsy fire on its inviolable territorial waters. This is fully
evidenced by the recent situation prevailing in the hot spot of the
West Sea of Korea.
The intrusion into the territorial waters of the DPRK side being
perpetrated by warships of the puppet army under the pretext of
intercepting fishing boats is escalating day by day and there continues
day and night the mad-cap firing and shelling on Paekryong, Yonphyong,
Taechong and other islands.
In order to cope with the prevailing situation, all the strike
groups of the KPA in the southwestern sector of the front rounded off
preparations for devastating strike after having a complete retaliatory
posture.
We clearly know that not only the puppet Ministry of Defense but
also Chongwadae are behind the reckless clumsy firing perpetrated by the
bellicose forces of the south Korean puppet military in the most
sensitive waters.
Park Geun Hye and her group finding themselves in the worst ruling
crisis and being driven into a pitfall of destiny are working hard to
seek a way out by desperately perpetrating provocations in the hotspot
waters and pushing the situation to the brink of a war.
All the service personnel of the KPA in the southwestern sector of
the front are full of the strong will of retaliation to punish the
provocateurs to the last one by giving vent to their pent-up grudge.
What they are waiting for is only the order to be given by the Supreme Command to strike the provocateurs.
The provocateurs will have to keenly realize what high price they
will pay for the consequences to be entailed by their reckless clumsy
firing. -0-

Pyongyang, June 26 (KCNA) -- A brisk work is going on in the DPRK to
raise class consciousness among the younger generations with the day of
anti-U.S. struggle (June 25) as an occasion.
The class education helps the young people have an bitter hatred
toward the exploiting classes and harden their will to protect the
interests of the working masses and the gains of socialism as well as
not to pardon those who dare slander the dignity and the social system
of the DPRK and its line of simultaneously pushing forward the economic
construction and the building of nuclear force.
According to Kan Ok Ryon, an official of the C.C.,

Kim Il Sung
Socialist Youth League, the anti-U.S. education has been conducted in
various forms and methods at schools across the country, including Kim Il Sung University, Kim Chaek University of Technology and Pyongyang University of Architecture.
The youth league officials in different parts of the country went
among the working youths to inform of the untold misfortune and
sufferings imposed by the U.S. imperialists on the Korean nation during
the last Korean War and the vicious anti-DPRK war moves of the Park Geun
Hye group in south Korea.
The league organizations at all levels organized frequent visits to
the class education places such as the National House of Class Education
and the Sinchon Museum while concentrating on the education through
data displayed in class education rooms.
Also, meetings of various forms are held at worksites to invoke
vengeance on the U.S. imperialists and the Park Geun Hye group of
traitors. -0-

Pyongyang,
June 26 (KCNA) -- Some countries toeing the U.S. line recently dared
find fault with the DPRK over the issue of the long defunct Armistice
supervisory mechanism.
The spokesman for the Panmunjom Mission of the Korean People's Army
gave the following answer to the question put by the newspaper Joson
Inmingun on Thursday in this regard:
Some days ago, representatives of central European countries flew
into Seoul to hold "high-level meeting on political affairs".
We do not know by whose entreaty and for what reason they went so busy in such sweltering weather and we do not care at all.
However, we cannot overlook their reckless behavior of groundlessly
finding fault with the DPRK and letting loose invectives, unsuitable to
the time and place and not befitting their positions.
They styling themselves high-level politicians of the "Four Nations
Consultative Council" of Europe held a press conference at which they
started to talk about the "Neutral Nations Supervisory Commission" all
of a sudden.
They claimed that this mechanism which was formed with the mission
to supervise and control the introduction and reinforcement of military
personnel and arms and equipment from outside Korea according to the
Korean Armistice Agreement, seemed to disappear for form's sake but it
still exists and is functioning.
They also asserted in their own way that in the light of its
existence it shows international community's concern over the Korean
peninsula being "a dangerous powder magazine." When the audience queried
what is the need to talk about the "Neutral Nations Supervisory
Commission" forgotten by the people long ago, they answered its
"symbolic meaning was very important".
It is needless to ask why they tried so hard to recognize the existence of the mechanism with keen interest.
They unhesitatingly revealed their ulterior intention to force the
DPRK to "dismantle" nukes and show "sincere will for changes" if the
constant tension is to be defused on the Korean peninsula. It was just
the same as the U.S. assertion, though it sounded different outwardly.
The politicians who pulled up the DPRK this time were guys of the
former member nations of the "Neutral Nations Supervisory Commission".
They must know better than anyone else that the commission is
forgotten in history because it was reduced to a servant of the U.S. in
its moves for invading the DPRK and abandoned the principle of
neutrality and fairness, different from its original mission.
They were to blame for rendering the mechanism defunct, subservient
to the U.S. without any elementary principle. It is more than two
decades since then but they are behaving so ridiculously not feeling any
shame, passing the buck for the tension on the peninsula to the DPRK.
They should pay without fail for their criminal acts of nullifying the
Armistice Agreement and rendering the supervisory mechanism defunct,
pursuant to the U.S. scenario of aggression against the DPRK.
People ridicule them for becoming poor trumpeters for the U.S. anti-DPRK campaign.
They, at the same time, see through the petty trick of the U.S. to
revive the supervisory mechanism by bringing together riff-raffs on the
occasion of June 25.
No one on earth can prevail over justice and truth.
We would like to politely advise those poor trumpeters bribed by the U.S.
They should regard their dignity as dear as their lives and always
uphold justice against injustice if they have an iota of reason.
They should not behave like a marionette.
No one can hurt the dignity of the DPRK racing against time full of dynamism.
The U.S. should face up to this stark reality and give up the stupid attempt to revive the supervisory mechanism.
It would be well advised to seriously look back on what miserable
fate the Korean war brought to the U.S. and what disastrous consequences
were entailed by the moves for aggression against the DPRK pursued by
the U.S. in the subsequent period.
It is the steadfast stand of the Korean People's Army that there
will be no word "ceasefire" in the final standoff with the U.S.
The U.S. and its allies should always remember this. -0-

The Association For the Study of Songun Politics UK, the Juche Idea Study Group of England and the UK Korean Friendship Association issued the following joint statement today in connection with the statement of the DPRK Foreign Ministry on the moves to hurt the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK;

The intention of the US ruling quarters to screen a film that basically advocates violence and aggression against the Democratic People's Republic of Korea including insulting and assassinating the supreme leadership of the DPRK. This is an intolerable act , indeed an act of psychological terrorism against the DPRK and an act of war against the DPRK.

This inflammatory film is the latest in a long line of anti-DPRK films produced by US with the aim of inciting hatred towards the DPRK so as to promote the idea of an aggressive war against the DPRK amongst the US public. It is a cheap and reactionary rubbish of capitalist Hollywood where moneymaking prevails over true art and culture.

The fact that such a film has been made in the US and it is planned to screen in it the US shows that the US has no will or intention to improve relations with the DPRK . The platitudes about peace etc are merely a deceptive honey flavoured artifice . The production of the film shows that the aggressive designs of the US towards the DPRK remain unchanged . In fact what it proves is that these aggressive designs have become more sharper and more intense . The US imperialists clearly intend to use force against the DPRK and its supreme leadership and stifle Korean-style socialism . As the DPRK Foreign Ministry statement says the US is a "kingpin of international terrorism and its cesspool" Indeed the world progressive people recall the lengthy list of assassinations , coups and conspiracies spawned by US imperialism over the years. Even one US president ,Kennedy, fell victim to an assassination plot of the US military industrial complex . It should be remembered that a long time ago the US sent an agent to assassinate the great leader of the Korean people President Kim Il Sung.

Our organisations, the ASSPUK, JISGE and UK KFA , demand the

US authorities scrap this film and cancel its screening. Furthermore we call on the world progressive people to campaign against the screening of the film and to expose the aggressive intentions of the US imperialists towards the DPRK .

London 25th of June Juche 103(2014)
The ASSPUK , JISGE and UK Korean Friendship Association issued a joint statement in support of the statement issued by the Committee For the Peaceful Reunification of Korea on the 24th of June;
We support the statement of the Committee For the Peaceful Reunification of Korea which rightly condemns the south Korean fascists puppets for foolishly trying to "celebrate " the provocation of the Fatherland Liberation War (Korean War ) by staging events such as "Hoguk" and even inviting the former mercenary troops of satellite states that participated in the war.
The south Korean puppets and the US imperialists were defeated in the Fatherland Liberation War . In the first two months of the war most of the south Korean puppet simply ran away. It is totally ridiculous for the south Korean puppets to stage such events as there are are total travesty of the historical truth.

The south Korean puppet fascist regime should look the situation and the past history squarely in the face and desist from such foolhardy and provocative actions.

Pyongyang,
June 25 (KCNA) -- The National Peace Committee of Korea in a statement
Wednesday said the Korean war of aggression ignited by the U.S.
imperialists and the south Korean puppet forces was the thrice-cursed
crime.
On June 25, 1950 the U.S. imperialists instigated traitor Syngman
Rhee to launch a surprise invasion against the DPRK and killed Koreans
by the most cruel means and methods and reduced this land to debris, the
statement noted, and continued:
More than 1.2 million guiltless peaceable civilians were massacred
in cold blood by barbarous man-killers hell-bent on aggression and
man-hunting and mountains and rivers were drenched with human blood.
Planes of the U.S. imperialist aggressors indiscriminately dropped
nearly 600 000 tons of bombs and napalm bombs on areas of the DPRK,
reducing them to such horrible ashes that not a single house and a piece
of brick were left undestroyed.
Human history records the cruelest and the most shuddering crimes
committed by the Hitler fascist junta during the Second World War but
the atrocities perpetrated by the Yankee imperialists during the Korean
war put the Hitler fascists into the shade in brutality, cruelty and
barbarity.
But the aggressors could not bring to their knees the heroic people
who turned out in do-or-die resistance to defend the sovereignty of the
country. Finally, they were compelled to sign the document of surrender
before the army and people of the DPRK.
The U.S. imperialists have worked more desperately to ignite a new
war in order to realize their scenario of aggression against the DPRK,
far from drawing a lesson from the shameful defeat they sustained in the
war.
The U.S. imperialists and their lackeys south Korean military
gangsters are staging farces of extolling to the sky their war crimes,
describing the last Korean war as "the war which checked the north's
southward invasion."
All Koreans in the north and the south should courageously turn out
in a sacred battle to deal sledge hammer blows at those enemies keen to
bring the dark clouds of a nuclear war to the land.
The UN and other international organizations and the world
peace-loving people should clearly understand who the arch criminal
harassing peace on the Korean peninsula is and resolutely shatter the
warmongers' reckless attempt to ignite a war of aggression.
The U.S. and the puppet forces should not run amuck, clearly mindful
of the catastrophic consequences to be entailed by the second Korean
war. -0

Pyongyang, June 25 (KCNA) -- The Panmunjom mission of the Korean
People's Army on Wednesday released a detailed report condemning the
U.S. for pushing the Korean peninsula to constant danger of a war and
imposing unspeakable misfortune and pain on the Korean nation.
The U.S. has deliberately aggravated the situation on the peninsula
by violating the Armistice Agreement, the legal mechanism to prevent the
recurrence of a war, the report said, and went on:
The U.S. signed the "mutual defense treaty" with the south Korean
puppet forces on August 8, 1953, thus legitimizing the permanent
presence of the U.S. imperialist aggressors in south Korea. This was a
blatant violation of Paragraph 60 of Article 4 of the AA which calls for
withdrawing all foreign forces from Korea and peacefully settling the
Korean issue.
It systematically breached Paragraph 13 d which bans the
introduction into Korea of all arms and equipment, Paragraph 23 of
Article 2 related to activities of the mechanism for monitoring and
controlling military hostilities and the relevant paragraphs of the AA
which call for ceasing all hostilities against the other party.
The U.S. moves to totally scrap the AA reached an extreme phase when
it let a "general" of the south Korean puppet army having neither
reason nor qualifications hold the post of a senior member of the
"Military Armistice Commission" in 1991.
The mechanisms to supervise the implementation of the AA which were
formed according to the AA ceased to exist due to the U.S. undisguised
challenge and obstructive moves.
After getting AA buried in history, the U.S. began to direct all its
efforts to committing vicious military provocations to invade the DPRK.
After diverting the basic orientation of its strategy for world
domination to the Asia-Pacific region in the 1990s, the U.S. set the
DPRK as the primary target of its "East Asia strategy." It steadily
revised and supplemented all scenarios for a war against the DPRK
including OPLAN 5027 and OPLAN 5030 and finally round them off.
To this end, the U.S. massively reinforced latest destructive
weapons targeting the DPRK, perpetrated reckless military provocations
and steadily intensified large-sale war maneuvers.
The U.S. has staged a total of at least 18 000 war maneuvers for
invading the DPRK and joint military exercises in and around south Korea
since the ceasefire, counting only those opened to public.
The situation prevailing on the Korean peninsula is so gravest that a
nuclear war may break out any moment, the report said, and continued:
It was the period of the last Korean war that the Korean nation was
exposed to the nuclear threat and blackmail for the first time.
The then war boss Truman made several attempts to drop A-bomb on the
DPRK to recover from the repeated heavy setbacks in the Korean war.
The U.S. blackmailed the DPRK with nuclear bombs, threatening to
reduce it to debris. This left towering grudge in the minds of Koreans.
Since the end of the 1950s, the U.S. began to massively introducing
nuclear weapons into south Korea.
As early as in the 1970s the U.S. turned south Korea into the area
with the biggest density in the deployment of nuclear weapons in the
world.
Early in the 1980s it brought even neutron bombs to south Korea.
After turning south Korea into the world's biggest outpost for
nuclear attack and nuclear arsenal, the U.S. worked desperately to use
those nuclear weapons with various missions in fighting a war of
aggression against the DPRK.
Focus Retina, Freedom Bolt, Team Spirit, RSOI, Key Resolve, Foal
Eagle, Ulji Freedom Guardian and all other joint military exercises
which it has staged so far since the 1960s were all aimed to bolster the
actual nuclear war capabilities in south Korea.
In fact, the U.S. attempted the direct use of nuclear weapons, while
openly designating the DPRK, the non-nuclear state, as a target of a
preemptive nuclear attack on several occasions.
In the "quadrennial defense strategy review report" the U.S. defined
the DPRK as "state posing direct threat" and the "biggest rival" and
blustered that in case its "deterrence strategy" fails, it will contain
the DPRK by use of nuclear force. This revealed to what reckless phase
its ambition to stifle the DPRK with nukes has reached.
Obama in a recent public appearance did not utter even a word about
the moves of the U.S. as the arch criminal who spawned the nuclear issue
of the Korean peninsula and posed the nuclear threat and blackmail but
let loose a whole string of provocative outbursts that he would
continue to pressurize the north to denuclearize, while groundlessly
taking issue with the nuclear deterrence of the DPRK. This once again
revealed its attempt to persist in the moves to ignite a nuclear war
against the DPRK.
After the armistice mechanism became defunct, there took place
hundreds of big and small talks and contacts including 16 rounds of
general-level talks and more than 200 rounds of colonel-level working
talks between the DPRK and the U.S. But no progress was made in the
discussions on matters of establishing a new peace-keeping mechanism due
to the deliberate and unjustifiable behavior of the U.S. forces side.
Only merciless punishment and fist, not word, will work on the U.S.
as it regards aggression and war as the mode of its existence.
The army and people of the DPRK are waiting for the moment to settle
accounts with the U.S. which posed constant nuclear war threat to the
Korean peninsula and imposed untold misfortune and sufferings on it. -0-

Pyongyang, June 25 (KCNA) -- The spokesman for the Foreign Ministry of the DPRK released the following statement Wednesday:
The enemies have gone beyond the tolerance limit in their despicable
moves to dare hurt the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK.
A preview of a film on insulting and assassinating the supreme
leadership of the DPRK is floating in broad daylight in the U.S., a
kingpin of international terrorism and its cesspool, shocking the world
community.
The U.S. has gone reckless in such provocative hysteria as bribing a
rogue movie maker to dare hurt the dignity of the supreme leadership of
the DPRK. This act of not fearing any punishment from Heaven is
touching off the towering hatred and wrath of the service personnel and
people of the DPRK.
The above-said practice is, however, a revelation of its fear as it
is taken aback by the bright and rosy future of the DPRK under the
leadership of the peerless great man and a last-ditch effort of those
who are seized by a daydream.
Absolutely intolerable is the distribution of such film in the U.S.
as it is the most undisguised terrorism and a war action to deprive the
service personnel and people of the DPRK of their mental mainstay and
bring down its social system.
The dignified and worthwhile life the Korean people enjoy at present
and the great changes taking place in the country as well as everything
valuable that will belong to the rosy future when the dreams and ideals
of the people will come true would be unthinkable apart from the
supreme leadership of the DPRK.
That's why they regard the supreme leadership as dearer than their own lives.
It is their firm determination and stamina to mercilessly destroy
anyone who dares hurt or attack the supreme leadership of the country
even a bit.
Those who defamed our supreme leadership and committed the hostile
acts against the DPRK can never escape the stern punishment to be meted
out according to a law wherever they might be in the world.
If the U.S. administration connives at and patronizes the screening
of the film, it will invite a strong and merciless countermeasure. -0-

Today
25 June is the day 64 years ago when the south Korean puppet army
launched an attack against the Democratic People's Republic of Korea at
dawn thus provoking the Fatherland Liberation War (known in the West as
the Korean War) . The Fatherland Liberation was a fierce anti US,anti
imperialist struggle against the forces of international reaction and a
severe class struggle against the enemies of
the people the landlords and capitalists. It was a just national
liberation war and a patriotic war of national reunification.
The US imperialists fought an unjust war to conquer and
subjugate the DPRK and destroy the people's democracy in its cradle .
The US imperialists and their satellite states fought a most evil war to
prevent the reunification of Korea. The aim of the US imperialists was
to use the Korean war as a springboard to conquer Asia and also to
destroy the socialist countries. In Korea the US imperialists fought a
most brutal war committing all kinds of shuddering atrocities. In Korea
US imperialism proved that it was the modern form of nazi-ism ! http://www.uk-songun.com/index.php?p=1_110_US-IMPERIALISTS-STARTED-THE-KOREAN-WAR

Pyongyang,
June 24 (KCNA) -- The National Reunification Institute released an
indictment Tuesday terming the U.S. imperialists and the south Korean
puppet forces provokers of the Korean war and aggressors and harassers
of peace who run amuck to ignite a war of aggression against the DPRK.
The indictment said:
The U.S. imperialists landed in south Korea to launch aggression and
divide the Korean nation into two right after Japan's defeat in August
1945. They then buckled down to making full-fledged preparations for a
war against the DPRK.
Enforcing a military rule in south Korea, they worked hard to create
socio-political environment favorable for rallying pro-U.S. and
reactionary forces and igniting a war.
The true colors of the U.S. as a chief culprit who spearheaded the
preparations for provoking the Korean war were brought to light by its
moves for organizing the puppet army and rapidly reinforcing it so that
it might play the role of a shock brigade in executing the war.
In order to hold the prerogative of commanding the puppet army, the
U.S. imperialists signed an agreement on setting up a U.S. military
advisors' group in south Korea in January 1950. Military advisers were
sent even to all battalions, to say nothing of divisions and regiments
of the south Korean army, to hurl them into exercises for a war.
For the modernization of the puppet army, the U.S. gave the Syngman
Rhee clique military aid worth 110 million U.S. dollars as well as lots
of weaponry in 1949.
2.627 billion U.S. dollars were spent for arming the soldiers of the
puppet army in the 1948-1950 period. The Syngman Rhee clique directed
45 percent of the "government" budget to the military purposes.
The U.S. imperialists channeled all efforts into mapping out a war scenario while making preparations for the war.
From the outset of 1949, they set it as their immediate task to
"invade the north" and buckled down to working out a war scenario with
KATO and History Class of G-3 comprising generals of the Imperial
Japanese Army belonging to G-2 of MacArthur's Command as main players
and with the head of the U.S. military advisors' group Robert and bosses
of the puppet army involved.
They studied and worked out A,B,C plans envisaging occupying Korea,
Manchuria and Siberia and also drafted a military action program for the
invasion of Korea related to A plan.
To invent a pretext for starting the Korean war, the U.S.
imperialists and the puppet forces committed more than 5 150 armed
provocations in the areas along the 38th Parallel from 1947 to right
before the outbreak of the war.
In 1949 alone, the puppet forces committed 2 617 provocations.
The U.S. imperialists and the puppet forces became all the more
frantic in their moves to launch the war all of a sudden and shift the
blame for the provocation of the war on to the DPRK.
Under the command of the U.S. military advisers just as planned by
the operational scenario, the puppet forces launched a sudden armed
invasion of the DPRK in all areas along the 38th Parallel at 4 o'clock
on June 25.
To brand the DPRK as an "aggressor" just as was drafted in the
scenario, the U.S. imperialists convened an emergency meeting of the UN
Security Council on June 25 and rammed through it UN Resolution No. 82.
By describing the counterattack by the Korean People's Army as an
"attack on the UN", they worked out UN Resolution No. 83 on June 27 in
order to hurl into the Korean war a large number of American troops and
those of their allies.
On July 7 they cooked up UN Resolution No. 84 to organize "UN Forces" and "UN Command".
By illegally working out the UN Security Council resolutions by
abusing the UN name, the U.S. tried hard to cover up its nature as
provoker of the Korean war and aggressor.
The fierce war of the U.S.-led imperialist allied forces against the just two year-old DPRK lasted for three years.
The U.S. imperialists made desperate efforts to put the DPRK under
its control even by abusing the UN name but the myth of their
"mightiness" was shattered to smithereens.
Far from drawing a lesson from the shameful defeat they sustained in
the Korean war the U.S. imperialists and the south Korean puppet forces
openly put military pressure on the DPRK, crying out for "advance to
the north" even before the ink got dry on the Armistice Agreement.
The U.S. armed buildup moves for a new war have become all the more undisguised in recent days.
The U.S. imperialists and the south Korean puppet forces have
persistently conducted DPRK-targeted nuclear war exercises for more than
half a century and they have become all the more vicious in the 2000s.
The U.S. and the south Korean puppet forces conducted more than 18
000 war exercises against the DPRK under various codenames over the past
over six decades after the ceasefire.
The U.S. and the south Korean warmongers' nuclear war exercises
against the DPRK have reached an extremely dangerous phase after Park
Geun Hye took office.
They are sadly mistaken if they think they can get something by provoking another Korean war, the indictment said.
In the Korean war in the 1950s they could barely survive by signing
the surrender document. But they should clearly understand that if they
ignite a war of aggression again, none of them will survive to sign the
surrender document and they will meet a miserable end in the face of the
merciless retaliatory strikes by Songun Korea, the indictment stressed.

Pyongyang, June 24 (KCNA) -- The spokesman for the Committee for the
Peaceful Reunification of Korea (CPRK) Tuesday issued a statement
denouncing the south Korean puppet group for kicking off the
conspiratorial moves for confrontation with the DPRK with the June 25
Korean war as a momentum.
The statement said:
The puppet group is staging such farce as hosting a "hoguk event",
"inviting fighters in the war" and holding a "ceremony for marking
battles" with mercenaries of the U.S. and those states following it who
participated in the Korean war and even young people and children of
south Korea attending, inciting sycophancy toward the U.S. and hysteria
for confrontation with fellow countrymen in the north. They are kicking
up war maneuvers against the north together with the U.S.
This is aimed to shift the blame for the outbreak of the war on to
the DPRK to cover up their crimes and ignite a new war of aggression on
the Korean peninsula at any cost.
Such moves are a shameless mockery of justice and historical truth
and an unpardonable provocation and challenge to the DPRK.
They dared not mention the war, talking about "forgotten war" as
their defeat in the war was so shameful but they are now orchestrating
such farce "marking the victory". This is a tragicomedy ridiculed by the
world people.
With no rhetoric can they conceal their true colors as aggressors
and provocateurs and they will get nothing but suffer a disgraceful
defeat through their moves for confrontation with the DPRK.
If they ignite another war, oblivious of the bitter lesson taught by
history, all the service personnel and people of the DPRK will give
vent to their pent-up grievance and resentment and thus wipe out the
aggressors and provokers from this land with arms of Songun and
accomplish the historic cause of national reunification without fail. -0

Pyongyang, June 22 (KCNA) -- The spokesman for the DPRK Foreign
Ministry gave the following answer to a question put by KCNA Sunday as
regards the anti-DPRK invectives made by the Australian foreign
minister:
On June 19 the Australian foreign minister at a telephone interview
dared hurt the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK, not
content with slandering its just line and policy including the
bolstering of nuclear deterrence for self-defence.
Great irony is that although she is the foreign minister of a
country, she unhesitatingly let loose a spate of reckless remarks
slandering the other country and interfering in its internal affairs,
not properly understanding even the elementary principle of the UN
Charter and the essence of the regional peace and security.
Anyone of reason recognizes the stark reality that the threat to the
peace and security in the Korean peninsula and in the region is being
posed by the U.S. which has ceaselessly staged in collusion with the
south Korean puppet forces joint military exercises chiefly aimed to
"occupy Pyongyang" with huge armed forces for aggression and lethal
weapons involved.
Stunning is that the Australian foreign minister dared hurt the
dignity of the DPRK's supreme leadership while talking about what she
called legitimacy.
She is not entitled to call for legitimacy as she is no more than a
stooge carrying out the U.S. hostile policy toward the DPRK and echoing
others' sophism without his own foreign policy and view.
The DPRK will never pardon but resolutely punish anyone who dares slander the dignity of its supreme leadership. -

Pyongyang, June 21 (KCNA) -- South Korean puppet Chief Executive Park
Geun Hye and Chief of the Security Office of Chongwadae Kim Kwan Jin are
becoming evermore undisguised in their provocation against the DPRK.
At a meeting of chief secretaries of Chongwadae Park instructed Kim
to "make sure that there is no security vacuum", trumpeting about the
"threat and provocation from the north". Echoing her words, Kim jabbered
that he would "tighten the national security" and "devote himself to
laying a foundation for peaceful unification" and the like.
This is nothing but ugly looking kiss between the anti-reunification conservative elders.
This is, at the same time, no more than sophism let loose by the
arch criminals escalating the tension on the Korean peninsula and
psychopaths seized with "security" phobia.
Trumpeting about "security" is a trite-method employed by the puppet
conservative group of south Korea to strain the situation on the
peninsula.
The first order made by Kim right after taking his office as puppet
minister of Defense was to infuse the outlook on security into the minds
of the service members.
Park also uttered the word "security" whenever an opportunity presented itself.
She cried out for "maintaining perfect security posture to cope with
the north's provocation against the south as the former intensifies its
propaganda offensive" on January 18 during her foreign trip.
In May, too, she held an emergency meeting as regards what she
called the north's shelling at which she called for "tightening the
security posture."
Under that pretext the U.S. and south Korean forces staged war
drills for aggression and stepped up the arms buildup, escalating the
tension on the peninsula.
Entering this year, they staged in south Korea the Key Resolve and
Foal Eagle joint military drills, the largest-ever in the world, with
huge U.S. nuclear war hardware and aggressor forces involved.
It pushed the situation to the brink of a war by staging large-scale
joint landing drills aimed at "occupying Pyongyang" and Max Thunder,
the joint air combat drills targeting the whole of the DPRK, to push the
situation to the brink of a war.
This being a hard reality, for whom is the "security" touted by the puppet regime necessary?
Its "security" motto precisely means confrontation and a prelude to the war against the north.
At an annual "security" consultative meeting the U.S. and the puppet
group worked out and officially decided on the scenarios for preemptive
nuclear attack upon the DPRK including the "tailored deterrent
strategy."
The puppet group has cooked up anti-reunification documents and
scenarios for the confrontation of the social systems under the
signboard of "security" as evidenced by the fact that it called for
"leading the north to changes" through "balanced promotion of security
and exchange and cooperation" in its "second principal plan for the
development of north-south relations."
It is again under the pretext of the "threat to security" that the
puppet group has pushed ahead with its move to extend the transfer of
wartime operation control to help the U.S. occupy south Korea for an
indefinite period and the construction of U.S. military bases including
the Jeju naval base is pressed forward in real earnest. This is the
reality of south Korea.
The prevailing situation goes to clearly prove that it is none other
than the U.S. and the puppet group that bring the danger of a nuclear
war and disturb peace and security on the Korean peninsula.
It is nonsensical and ridiculous that the puppet group is talking a
lot about "security", citing "provocation from the north" and "its
threat" though it turned south Korea into the largest nuclear outpost in
the Far East.
Park and Kim's oft-repeated "security" and "unification" are, in the
final analysis, little short of an open declaration that they would
stand in confrontation with the DPRK to the last and would not rule out
even a war against it.
Security can never be achieved through confrontation and it will bring nothing but a war.

UK KOREAN FRIENDSHIP ASSOCIATION
London June 21st of 2014
The UK Korean Friendship Association (UK KFA) issued the following
statement on the 64th anniversary of the provocation of the Korean War
(Fatherland Liberation War in the DPRK) which falls on the 25th of June
and the start of the month of solidarity with the Korean people against
US imperialism from June 25th to July 27th (the dates being symbolic as
they are the dates when the war started and finished).
The Korean war provoked entirely by the US imperialists and their south
Korean puppets was a horrendous genocidal war against the Korean people .
The aim of the US was not "freedom" and "democracy" but conquest and
enslavement. The aim of the US was to seize the northern half of Korea
in order to have a strategic bridgehead , so that they could have their
troops on the borders of China and the Soviet Union . In fact General
Douglas MacArthur wanted to turn the Korean war into a war against
China. It was part and parcel of the "rollback " strategy of US
imperialism and the so called "Truman doctrine."

The fact that
John Foster Dullles, US secretary of state , visited south Korea on the 19th of June 1950 only a
week before the war started proves beyond all reasonable doubt the role
of the US in provoking the war. The Foster-Dulles visit involved tours of front-line areas .

The US killed 1,200,000
million civilians in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea . During
the war the US indiscriminately bombed the DPRK as well as carrying out
deliberate and premeditated massacres of civilians.

The US imperialists committed horrendous and stomach-turning atrocities in all parts of Korea. In July 2013 UK KFA saw the Sinchon Ri Museum which serves as a memorial to the 35,383 people murdered by the US imperialists during their temporary occupation of the area. Similar atrocities took place at
Rogun-ri in south Korea. The US not only used napalm in Korea but
also biological weapons that are outlawed under international law.

The
most fitting tribute to those who died in the Korean War is to campaign for the withdrawal of US troops from the
south of Korea and for the reunification of Korea.
UK KFA
joins with Korean Friendship organisations throughout the world and
progressive people everywhere in calling for the total and unconditional
withdrawal of US troops from the south of Korea . The US must end its
anti DPRK policy .The US imperialists are building up their armed forces in south
Korea with new weapons as well as continuing to carry out military exercises against the DPRK.
The US imperialists are also trying to breathe life into the defunct and ghost-like " UN Command " (UNC) in south Korea. In past the UNC was a cover for US aggression and an instrument of neo-colonial rule in south . Now
the US imperialists aim to use it a central plant in an effort to create a "multi-national " force for deployment in a new Korean war .

Finally it is time for the
Korean Armistice Agreement now nearly 60 years ago to be replaced by a
proper and permanent peace treaty. We strongly support the proposal of
the National Defence Commission of the DPRK for talks with the US .

The
great leader Comrade KIM
JONG IL started work at the Central Committee
of the Workers’ Party of Korea on June 19, 1964. For a period of
more than 45 years the great leader comrade KIM
JONG IL guided and led the work of the
Workers' Party of Korea . The WPK is the organiser and guide of the
Korean people and the general staff of the Korean revolution.

Comrade KIM JONG IL
said when starting work at the Central Committee of the WPK;

"Now
that I am to work at the Party Central Committee, my shoulders are
heavy with a sense of responsibility for the Korean revolution.

"The
Party Central Committee is the General Staff of the Korean
revolution and the highest leadership of the revolution which guides
politics, the economy, culture, military affairs and all other
sectors of the country. The future and the destiny of our country
and our people depend on how the officials at the Party Central
Committee work.

"As
I start working at the Party Central Committee, I am more firmly
determined than ever to work wholeheartedly under the sagacious
leadership of Comrade Kim Il Sung for the prosperity of the country
and for the freedom and happiness of the people.”

Comrade
KIM JONG IL began working at the Central Committee of the WPK
at a time when the internal and external situation of the DPRK
was very complicated. The US imperialists had created the
“Caribbean crises”(Cuba missile crisis ) in 1962 and perpetrated
unscrupulous aggressive machinations against the socialist
countries and third world countries. In particular, they made the
situation on the Korean peninsula extremely tense . In 1961 there
was a military coup in south Korea resulting in a military fascist
dictatorship being created which did all it could to intensify
confrontation with the DPRK at the behest of its US imperialist
masters.

The
opportunists who had appeared in the international communist
movement created great difficulties in the development of the world
revolution, compromising with imperialism and undermining the unity
and cohesion of the socialist countries. The modern

revisionists co-operated with the imperialists preaching 'peaceful co-existence' .The international
communist movement had become split down the middle and each big
power was demanding that the Workers' Party of Korea should take its
side.

Within
the WPK although they had received a severe blow in 1956 some
anti-party revisionists and counter-revolutionary factionalists
still covertly schemed within the WPK to damage and derail the
onward march towards the bright future of socialism and communism.
They caused had caused incalculable harm to the Party’s
organizational” and ideological work, national reunification,
foreign affairs and many other spheres . These elements were
encouraged by the growth of modern revisionism and by big power
chauvinism. Comrade KIM JONG IL led the struggle against the
anti-party factionalists and exposed their reactionary nature .The
15th Plenary Meeting of the Fourth Party Central Committee was held
from May 4 to 8, 1967. This plenary meeting laid bare the crime of
the anti- Party revisionists such as Pak Kum Chol, Ri Hyo Sun and
Kim To Man, and took the organizational measure of removing them
from the Party.

Comrade
KIM JONG IL ensured that a strong all-Party struggle was waged
to stamp out the evil ideological after-effects of the anti-Party
revisionists.

A
central question was to establish the monolithic ideological system
within the party. Comrade KIM JONG IL addressed this question
;

“The
Party ،̄s monolithic
ideological system is, in other words, the leader ̄s ideological
system and system of guidance. In our Party there can only be the
leader ،̄s revolutionary
idea and guidance. Without them the existence of our Party is
inconceivable. The revolutionary idea of the great leader is the
eternal guiding ideology of our Party and revolution. Thanks to the
wise guidance of the leader our people could not only victoriously
fight their way across tens of thou?sands of ri in the bloody war
against the Japanese imperialists, and defeat the US imperialist
aggressors, in the three-year-long Father?land Liberation War, but
also succeed in the postwar reconstruction and socialist revolution
and achieve miraculous successes in the building of socialism, to the
admiration of the people throughout the world.

We
must improve the education on Party policy, the revolutionary
traditions and socialist patriotism of Party members and the working
people. The main emphasis in the education need s to be on the
establishment of the Party ،
̄s monolithic
ideological system”

Thus
the establishment of the monolithic ideological system became the
order of the day and comrade KIM JONG IL
put forward the unique line of making the WPK the party of the
leader. The unity and oneness of ideology within the WPK was a
decisive factor in strengthening leadership over the socialist
revolution and socialist construction . In many countries
particularly the capitalist countries the communist and worker’s
parties did not ensure oneness in ideology but embarked on the road
of bourgeois liberalism even go as far to allow and encourage different
ideologies within the party with the result that these parties
eventually collapsed.

The
great leader comrade KIM JONG IL
after making profound studies decided to deepen and broaden the work
of establishing the monolithic ideological system by not only basing
the party on the Juche idea but by modelling the whole of society on Kimilsungism.

This
concept was put forward in February 1974 in the work “
"On Some Immediate Tasks of Party
Ideological Work for Modelling the Whole Society on Kimilsungism".
This
brought about a great upsurge in carrying on the revolution and the
WPK's ideological work. Also after the proclamation of the programme
the flags of the 'speed campaign ' of the mid 1970s flared up with
workers creating the "70 day battle speed " .

Since
then, the WPK has further strengthened into the party of President
KIM
IL SUNG
to dynamically advance the revolution and construction under the
uplifted banner of the Juche idea. The work for the modelling the
whole society on Kimilsungism has also played a key role in
consolidating the might of socialism centred on the masses and
cementing the single-minded unity of society. Moreover the concept of
turning all members of society into Juche-type communist
revolutionaries was put forward.

The great leader comrade KIM JONG IL whilst working at the central committee of the WPK guided many different fields of work . He paid close attention to

culture and authored the work "On the Art of the Cinema " , a work of true genius which

clarified many issues in the development of the socialist cinema. Whilst guiding the work

of socialist construction ensuring
that the principle of self-reliance was strictly adhered

to
. In his December 1978 work “Let Us Increase
the Party's Fighting Efficiency and Bring about a Fresh Turn in the
Building of Socialism" he
put forward the dynamic

revolutionary slogan “ Let Us Live
our Own way ! “ . This became the watchword and manifesto of
Juche-based socialism , enabling the Korean revolution to advance
militantly along the path of self-reliance defeating the big power
chauvinists ,dominationists and revisionists.

The late 1980s and early 1990s saw
an unprecedented challenges to the socialist revolution and
construction in Korea . This was a grim period in which the
socialist system of the world collapsed due to the imperialists'
anti-socialist offensive and the counter-revolutionary moves of the
revisionists and renegades of socialism. The Red flag was lowered over the
Kremlin , a happening that would that have once been considered unthinkable and abnormal.

The WPK had been
steeled under the leadership of the great leader comrade

KIM
IL SUNG and under the guidance
of the great leader comrade Kim Jong Il refused

to give in and stuck to firmly to
the road of socialism, the road of Juche.

Comrade
KIM JONG IL
in works such as “"The Historical lesson
in Building Socialism and the General Line of Our Party"
, Fundamentals of Revolutionary Party Building “
and other works made a deep analysis of why socialism was frustrated
in some countries.

He attributed the cause of the
frustration of socialism in some countries as being due to

to ruling parties in socialist
countries making not adhering to revolutionary principles

pointing out that

“the
revisionists, harbouring illusions about capitalism, completely
rejected socialist principles and fully introduced the capitalist
mode of politics and economic system, with the result that socialism
was frustrated and capitalism revived. Single concessions and a
gradual retreat from socialist principles have resulted in ten- and
hundred-fold concessions and a full retreat until, finally, the
grave consequence of the ruin of the working- class parties
themselves was incurred. “

He also pointed out the harmful
effect that bureaucracy had on socialism in some countries.

The
great leader comrade KIM
JONG IL
made public various famous works including "The
Workers' Party of Korea Is the Party of the Great Leader Comrade Kim
Il Sung" ,
“Socialism is a Science
"Giving Priority to Ideological Work Is
Essential for Accomplishing Socialism"
in the middle of the 1990s when the U.S.-led imperialist reactionary
forces were engaged in vicious moves, spreading the doctrine of
"collapse" of the WPK and socialist system with the demise
of President KIM IL
SUNG
as the occasion. In these works, comrade KIM
JONG IL
solemnly declared that the revolutionary principle and firm stand of
the WPK to carry out the socialist cause of Juche successfully.

Comrade
KIM JONG IL made sure
that the ideas and policies of the founder of
the WPK comrade KIM IL SUNG
were continued and actively carried forward When
the attempts of the US -led imperialists to stifle Korean -style
socialism became very intense in the 1990s the great leader put
forward Songun politics as the treasured sword of the WPK to
defend socialism.

The decades of leadership and
guidance to the WPK given by the great leader comrade

KIM
JONG IL had been decades of
victory and glory in which the socialist citadel of

People's Korea was consolidated.
Today the cause of Juche party building is carried

forward
by dear respected Marshal KIM JONG UN
the First Secretary of the WPK and

successor to the cause of Juche.

GLORY TO THE MEMORY OF THE GREAT LEADER ETERNAL GENERAL SECRETARY KIM JONG IL!
